As book bloggers, we are always reviewing a current book or posting about an upcoming series, but I am interested to see what books we hold on to for our personal/permanent library.  So, be spontaneous and randomly choose a book from your bookshelf...answer the questions below and share your random selection with fellow bloggers.

Winter Fire

by Jo Beverley

1. Have you read this book before? Yes. Funny enough, as soon as I picked up this book, I remembered exactly where I first read it: my 14-hour Trans-Siberian train ride from China to Mongolia. Nothing but a view of the Gobi desert, my top bed bunk and a book to keep me entertained.
2. Can you do a one sentence summary? An "enemy" of the family is invited for a festive Christmas gathering.
3. Do you like the cover? For a seasonal book, its kind of blah. But there is a gold bow and a toasty fire on the cover, so I guess their is some festive spirit. They should have put some holly around the fireplace mantle though!
4. What is the first full sentence on page 100? "These are the pieces of the stable."
5. Share something about the author. Jo Beverley is one the few authors writing English-set historical romance who is English.
